Ever heard of the Flex Fold crab trap? We took our video camera into Fisheries Supply, one of our favorite marine stores in Seattle, and tried out the exciting, flexing, folding action. Actually, this is a really nice accessory to keep on your boat for occasional crabbing. By no means the cheapest, but probably the best folding crab trap we've seen. Enjoy!

The coconut (or robber) crab is the largest land crab in the world. It can grow to one meter in leg span and live for 60 years. I had never seen or heard of one until this happened. Christmas Island is in the Indian Ocean, near Indonesia. There are around 100 million crabs living on the very small island. Most of them are not this big.

All CR grouches: YES, they ARE legal. We measured everything. The crabs were males. The small one was a legal rock crab. At the time there were NO size restrictions for rock cod. We weren't slayin', but it was fun and tasty. Good friends from Saskatchewan.
